Verse
EWe could have been poets, something strEong EWe could have been leaders for life loEng EWe could have been gF#eniuses every Eone F#But England's empire is fading away It's fF#ading away, oh happy day That's why...
Chorus (E F# A E) Verse We could have been workmen, true artisans Real strong people, women and man We could have been heroes sailing the sea But England's empire doesn't matter to me I know it's gone, it's gone and I feel free That's why... Chorus (E F# A E) You know I'm pointing the finger at dear old England, does anybody care' Verse We could have been saviours We could have been priests We could have been something strong and neat We could have been tidy, we could have been clean But England's empire is no longer on the scene And humanity is not so green Alright Could have been something on the scene You realize humanity is not so green That's why... Chorus (E F# A E) Verse Well now I'm sleeping in my bed Love got a cool and clear head I see the future, I see it all And I don't belong to any empire I'm not going to crawl And I don't belong to your empire I'm not going to crawl That's why... Chorus (E F# A E)
